I'm the Bears five coaches after 33 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 7: they won their last playoff game. Ben Johnson brought belief 34 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 7: into that building at Allas Hall, and the belief carried 35 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 7: over into a one play at a time mentality. Down 36 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 7: twenty one, three and a half times, and they come 37 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 7: all the way back to take the lead thirty one 38 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 7: twenty seven.

That is correct. We here in 47 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 6: the love Covenant. Ignie Brett Blake Moore David Sinneken, everybody 48 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 6: supporting the Green and Gold. We recognize you're going through 49 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 6: a lot right now and that this team, that team 50 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 6: is a large part of your identity, and now it's gone, 51 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 6: stole your heart like the thief in the night, and 52 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 6: that hurts you. You and those of your ilk were gutted, 53 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 6: and the purp went to twisting the knife because it 54 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 6: was the all time rival who never ever beat you 55 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 6: for decades in the ones that meant the most. You 56 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 6: look for Aaron and he was gone. No Donald Driver, Daggers, 57 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 6: Greg Jennings was nowhere to be found, and neither was 58 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 6: Leroy Butler, all of you, but specifically the film producer. Today, 59 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 6: you're downtrodden and lonely and the lashing out just has 60 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 6: to stop. We in The Love Covenant have experienced this 61 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 6: at the wire gouging far too many times, and. 62 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 3: We just would like you to relax. 63 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 6: We can help sip a beverage of your choice, and 64 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 6: let's expedite the healing. 65 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:35,919 Speaker 3: Before you do something rash. 66 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 6: Brett, all right, something rash like quitting iHeart and applying 67 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 6: at an am station or jumping to some narrow casting medium. 68 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 6: Feeling good about the numbers while failing to acknowledge to 69 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 6: a certain extent, all of that is akin to bragging 70 00:05:54,760 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 6: about straight a's in junior college. It's handling the Evans 71 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 6: stages of Gridiron grave And we start with shock. What 72 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 6: shocked you about the way Saturday night ended? In good 73 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 6: morning and good morning? 74 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 4: A lot shocked me the fact that McManus just. 75 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 3: Could not make a kick. 76 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 4: He looked like he had the I know you're not 77 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 4: supposed to say it, but it looked like he had 78 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 4: the kicking yips, which cost the Pack seven points. 79 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 3: Yes, thanks Aaron. 80 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 4: It also it shocks me, But it doesn't that the 81 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 4: lead evaporated because they had so many leads throughout the season. 82 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 4: It's been a theme throughout twenty twenty five. Is you 83 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 4: know they were up ten on Cleveland, they were up 84 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 4: on Dubtless, they were up in Denver. It had so 85 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 4: many games that they were up and ended up blowing it. 86 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 4: And I just I can't how long can you say 87 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 4: we're the youngest team in the league before you start 88 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 4: to go, oh, we need to mature little bits. So 89 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,559 Speaker 4: it was shocking that it happened again. 90 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 6: I suppose the seven stages of Gridiron grief have been 91 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 6: handled to a certain extent, conquered, dealt with many many 92 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 6: times in this Viking's loving Love Covenant. So shock being 93 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 6: the first, but the seven stages of gridiron grief sounds 94 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 6: like you're working through the shock. Okay, would you be 95 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 6: shocked if the head coach it's a contract extension. 96 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 4: If you would ask me yesterday, I would have said, yes, 97 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 4: it seems it's going in that direction that they're going 98 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 4: to extend them. 99 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 3: Don't be a lemming. 100 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 6: Don't change your opinion or your heart because a heavy 101 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 6: hitter around the National Football League says, yeah, I think 102 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 6: this is going to happen. Part of overcoming the shock 103 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 6: is not acquiescing or giving in to the desires of 104 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 6: for your life others wanting to puppeteer your heart and 105 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 6: your soul and your mind. Now, if you give in 106 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 6: to it, that's fine, that's your free will. But don't 107 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 6: give into it simply because some big timer like Adam 108 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 6: Shefter said is going to happen. I just don't understand. Sunday, 109 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 6: it's like fire everybody. And then now here we are 110 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,119 Speaker 6: on a talker Tuesday, trying to get through the seven 111 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 6: stages of gridiron related grief and you've changed your mind 112 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 6: what led to that? 113 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 4: I don't know if I changed my mind per se, 114 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 4: but I just was reading the tea leaves that that 115 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 4: may be what's gonna happen. I never called for his head. Yeah, 116 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 4: I was open to it. But eventually, when you have 117 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 4: three seasons of the exact same finish where you go 118 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 4: to the seven seed, you win one game, but it's 119 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 4: the exact same one and dynaman it's Minnesota wildlike it's 120 00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 4: at some point you have to ask have you pee? 121 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 3: And this is? Is this it? 122 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 4: I don't think that we have. But you know, you 123 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 4: can't be a one and done forever, especially in Green Bay. 124 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 6: For some reason, the Minnesota Wild just caught astray. As 125 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 6: we are negotiating the seven stages of Gridiron related grief 126 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 6: or a dedicated, lifetime loving Green Bay Packers fan who 127 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 6: happens to be producing nine to noon today, shock into 128 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 6: denial denial? What are you denying, Brett? 129 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 4: I'm denying that Jordan Love had anything to do with 130 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 4: that loss and that he should be even on the 131 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 4: Mount rushmore of blame for why the Green Bay Packers 132 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 4: lost that game. You throw four touchdowns, No interceptions, you 133 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 4: have a one hundred rating at the end of the game. 134 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 4: In my mind, he made a play down the stretch, 135 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 4: like the third to last play the game where he 136 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 4: puts the ball on Watson's hands at the two yard 137 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 4: line and he drops it. I think he's our guy, 138 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 4: and I'm denying that anyone would think that he isn't. 139 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 3: I would put. 140 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 4: Beat special teams, the kicker McManus, who I never want 141 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 4: to see again, Lafleur play calling, the offensive line that 142 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 4: was wounded, that couldn't block anyone down the stretch. I 143 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 4: think all of those have much more blame than the quarterback. 144 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 4: And he is the franchise guy, and I'll die on 145 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 4: that hill. 146 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 6: What about this, as we assist you with the seven 147 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 6: stages of gridiron grief, we've been there? 148 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 3: Is it? Are you denying perhaps that Caleb and Ben 149 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 3: together are better than Jordan and mattie Ll together? Are 150 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 3: you denying that it's hard to argue. 151 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 4: I mean they're finding a way. They've found a way 152 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 4: twice to somehow come from behind. And if you look 153 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 4: at just box scores, Kale didn't have that great of 154 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 4: a game, but he had had three sixty one. 155 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: Brett but he had one. Well, he had a couple 156 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 3: of picks as well. 157 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 6: We're handling denial right now, and I'm glad you're like, 158 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 6: Caleb didn't have a great game. Well, three point sixty 159 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 6: one is the most of any quarterback from all the 160 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 6: games we watched. For that stinker last night, and when 161 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 6: he floated out to the left and hit a doonsay from. 162 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 3: His left foot, just that's an all timer. 163 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 6: But this, this is part of denial. You're denying the 164 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 6: young man's greatness in that game because you are on 165 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 6: the wrong side of laying on the green and gold sword. 166 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 6: I understand that this is part of it. 167 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 4: Keep talking, well, I know if Love through two interceptions, 168 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 4: he would be getting mocked and ridiculed from here to 169 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 4: Eau Claire. So there is that. Okay, Yeah, I he 170 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 4: is good and that was an all time throw. And 171 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,599 Speaker 4: it's hard to argue when they go two out of 172 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 4: three and they beat your club. Every single one of 173 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 4: the games came down to the last play, the one 174 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 4: in Lambeau coming down to another Caleb interception, the end zone, 175 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 4: the overtime l at Soldier Field with Malik Willis, and 176 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 4: then this one. 177 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 3: You're doing a great job. 178 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's hard to argue that they're at least neck 179 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 4: and neck, if not surpassed. 180 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 3: But what is the ceiling? I guess is the other question. 181 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 3: You're doing a great job, Thank you. 182 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 6: I mean the cadence and the pop in your voice 183 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 6: and the chagrin on your countenance when I rolled in 184 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 6: at eight fifty nine was that of sadness. Well now 185 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 6: we're getting giggles. Now we're getting smiles. Now we're not 186 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 6: lashing out and yelling at people in the workplace. Just 187 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 6: continue to let it out. This is for your benefit. 188 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 6: The next stage of Gridiron grief gets us to anger. 189 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 6: Let's work on the anger. Okay, what is still angering 190 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 6: you about the love you lost? In dramatic fashion on 191 00:12:58,360 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 6: Saturday night Double b. 192 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 4: It's one name and one name only, and it's beating 193 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 4: a dead horse. 194 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 3: But it cannot be understated. Not wobble and then Wobble 195 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 3: rolled in the next day to make it worse. It 196 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 3: twists that night just a little bit that was. 197 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 4: As infuriating as it was, I can admit it was 198 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 4: a good bit. Well he's cocksure. Well there's that. 199 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, let the anger out, man, Brandon McManus. 200 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 4: I don't want to see him ever again in a 201 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 4: Green Bay uniform. We have Haver Sick on the practice 202 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 4: squad right now, who is the franchise holder for longest 203 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 4: kick ever in Packer's history. We have him on the 204 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 4: practice squad. 205 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 3: Yes, he topped. 206 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 4: Crosby earlier this year when McManus was hurt and you 207 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 4: cost the team seven points. I figured something with my 208 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 4: antenna went up at the end of the first half 209 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 4: where McManus makes a fifty five yarder but the Bears 210 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 4: get a time out. He goes for it again and 211 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 4: misses it, and my antenna went, uh, oh, here we go. 212 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 3: There's a missed up. 213 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 4: If you're the Bears, you go into the locker room thinking, oh, 214 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 4: there's an opportunity. They just missed it. On points, Are 215 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 4: kidding you miss a forty four yarder? I mean, any 216 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 4: one of these go in, even the extra point that 217 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 4: he missed. Now Jordan Love has to get to field 218 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 4: goal range to get a field goal off and tie. 219 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 3: It to go to overtime, which I would have missed 220 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 3: that one too. Let it out. So I don't want 221 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 3: to see him. 222 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 4: The fact that special teams, it's like Groundhog's Day that 223 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 4: it just costs Green Bay year after year after year, 224 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 4: to going back to Bostick and the stupid on side kick, 225 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 4: to go into Soldier Field last time with Romeo Dobbs. 226 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 3: And an on side kick. 227 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: Random Bostick just caught a stray and that took place 228 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: in the Cappuccino Capital many many years ago. That's part 229 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: of alleviating the Gridiron grief. This is working, This is working. 230 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 4: Please continue, And somehow we have the highest paid special 231 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 4: teams court in the NFL. 232 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he can't. 233 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 4: I understand, he can't make the kicks for McManus, but 234 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 4: at some point you gotta go. You know, this guy's 235 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 4: not getting it done. When he came back from injury, 236 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 4: he wasn't very good, and they still stuck with him because, well, 237 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 4: he's a veteran, he's been there. Didn't look like a 238 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 4: veteran in Chicago. That pisses me off. 239 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 3: Okay, well, this is working. Thank you. That felt really good. No, 240 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 3: don't thank me. I mean, didn't it feel good? Yeah? 241 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 6: See the seven stages of Gridiron grief. Eliminating the therapeutic 242 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 6: davenport of love. Why because Nordo and I laid on 243 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 6: it together. At the end of the Viking season, and 244 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 6: we broke a leg. So therefore the not our legs, 245 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 6: the legs of the chair. Because we've been on it 246 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 6: so much, that therapeutic davenport of love that we've worn 247 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 6: through the plastic and now the upholstery, all of a sudden, 248 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 6: it's starting to get tattered. I mean, I recognize the 249 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 6: seven stages of Gridiron grief. There are moments that are uncomfortable, 250 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 6: there are moments that are going to put you in 251 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 6: compromising positions, and shoot, you probably wish the show was 252 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 6: over right now. 253 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 3: I mean, how badly do you want to hear that 254 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 3: right now? 255 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 6: You want the whole thing to just be over and 256 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 6: get those good times. Now that that ain't the case, 257 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 6: So you can go ahead and bring that out. Because 258 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 6: you go and pull that out for a second. Here's why, 259 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 6: because you just mentioned you just mentioned this. 260 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 7: Oh les, see you misstop it? 261 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 3: What what you'll stop it before nineteen seconds? 262 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 6: I promise. 263 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 3: Keep that's what happened. 264 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 6: Man. Your world's out of order because of what you 265 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 6: just reference. Those missed opportunities, man, and you let the 266 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 6: anger out beautifully. 267 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 3: Bargaining bargaining's the next stage. 268 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 6: The bargaining stage is about making promises to yourself or 269 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 6: a higher being, asking the universe for a chance to 270 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 6: make things right. A Gridiron related bereaved person may seek 271 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 6: reason where there is none and may feel guilty about 272 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 6: how they are behaving in the hallways at this iHeart 273 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 6: campus in a top sixteen market. The way you're speaking 274 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 6: to people, thus the seven stages of Gridiron grief are 275 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 6: being handled. 276 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 3: Is that you is that you? Brett. 277 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 6: Don't internalize this pain, Brett. Yes, Micah didn't die. Micah 278 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 6: didn't die. He'll be back. Either did Devonte or Tucker. 279 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 6: They didn't die. They'll be back. Micah Michael Parsons will 280 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 6: be back around Christmas next year. But we can talk 281 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 6: about that some other time. Should be willing and able 282 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 6: to help, probably on a fifteen snap of game pitch 283 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 6: count to start. 284 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 3: But he didn't die. He'll be back. That has to 285 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 3: excite you, right, Brett palls he's back by Christmas? That 286 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 3: would not excite me. 287 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 4: But Thanksgiving maybe he's He says he can do it. 288 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 4: He says he'll try to get for week one. That's positivity. Yeah, 289 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 4: that thing positive for you, man. Jordan Love is still 290 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 4: a quarterback. That's that's a positive. 291 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,360 Speaker 6: Who's your favorite college football team? 292 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 4: Technically Wisconsin, but I don't. I don't really follow as 293 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 4: close as I once did. 294 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 3: Oh, it's not this, it's not the Iowa Hawk Eyes. No. 295 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 3: In fact, I can't stand the podcast. 296 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 6: Okay, nobody's laughing here. Okay, let's everybody relax. This is 297 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 6: very serious. To help somebody through some pain, the football 298 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 6: related depression. Depression is the next stage of the seven 299 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 6: stages of grit iron grief. Now, this is a toughie 300 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 6: because they're not coming back until next season. Brett, you 301 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 6: got free agency, you got the draft, you got OTAs, 302 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 6: you got mandatory mini camp, you got training camp, you 303 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 6: got preseason games about which nobody cares. But they're not 304 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 6: coming back until next season. Realize that. And even though 305 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 6: you guys don't have a first round pick and a 306 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,360 Speaker 6: quarterback who can't seem to make the right play when 307 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 6: it matters, most don't bury this. Is it possible to 308 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 6: find a way to feel good for others who are happy? 309 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 6: Like sa level, Can you feel good for Bears fans 310 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 6: who are full of glee right now? Maybe that would 311 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 6: help alleviate the football related depression. 312 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,479 Speaker 4: I would feel good for them if it wasn't at 313 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 4: our expense. 314 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 3: If they just made a run. 315 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 4: Let's say they beat the Eagles this week and they're 316 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 4: feeling great, I could find it in my I psyche 317 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 4: to go well, it's ultimately it's just sports who cares? 318 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 4: But that would make more. But now it's at our expense. 319 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 4: Now we've got to see the memes. Now we've got 320 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 4: to deal with Lavelle coming in to h check our 321 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 4: show again for one hour. Yeah, the memes, they they're 322 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,199 Speaker 4: they're mentally degrading memes. 323 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 3: Not really, I don't know. Get back to me next week. 324 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 4: If they win a game, then a're feeling really good, 325 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 4: then then maybe, but that it's hard for me to 326 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 4: root for anything. I feel better about Bills fans and 327 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 4: potentially making a run, but it's even if it was 328 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 4: the Purple I would feel better. 329 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 3: But no, not not the Bears. Are you feeling better now? 330 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:43,959 Speaker 3: Just in general? 331 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 6: Yeah? We have two to go? Okay for you're giggling. Yeah, 332 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 6: that's a lot better than forty five minutes ago when 333 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,719 Speaker 6: I witnessed you screaming at an account executive who had 334 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 6: the audacity to to where a game. Warn Mic get 335 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 6: good today, So it seems like you're doing a lot better. 336 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 3: I'm doing okay.

Oh, the Texans became the 673 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 6: second team in NFL history to win a playoff game 674 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 6: with multiple defensive touchdowns while not giving up a touchdown. 675 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:04,359 Speaker 6: Ell for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Twenty twenty six, 693 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 6: Rodgers did not rule out returning after the game or retiring. 694 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 6: If I'm Tomlin and I'm not sure who my quarterback 695 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 6: is next season, I'm low key hoping the Runey's politely 696 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 6: thank for thank me for my service of over two 697 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,720 Speaker 6: decades and asked me to leave pay me my money 698 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,920 Speaker 6: because I man, I can't roll into that thing.

They're 703 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 6: all three hof and forced each of them into multiple 704 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:52,000 Speaker 6: turnover games. If defense and breaking hearts is the key 705 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 6: to a title, who knows. Maybe this is Houston's year. 706 00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 6: If that's the case, c J.
